Description

Woodhead House is a two-storey building with a dormerless attic, constructed in 1831. It features a three-window front and is harled, with red ashlar quoins at the corners and around the openings. There is a belt course at the first floor and a narrow string course below the wallhead cornice, which suggests an entablature. The entrance has a tripartite doorpiece that is enclosed within a modern porch. The gables are plain and have one window each, with ashlar chimneys.
